TYPOLOGY OF HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS

Typology- system of classifying HEIs based on their mandates and functions vis-vis

      national development goals.

TYPOLOGY OF HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS

1. Horizontal Typology–based on functional differentiation

2. Vertical Typology-based on the elements of quality

HORIZONTAL TYPOLOGY

1. Professional Institutions -develop technical knowledge and skills at the undergraduate

and/or graduate levels that lead to professional practice

2. College -develop adults who have the thinking, problem solving, decision-making,

communication, technical and social skills to response to the needs of the communities they serve.

3. University - develop new knowledge and skills through  research and development

VERTICAL TYPOLOGY

1. Autonomous HEIs - show evidence of outstanding performance             consistent with their

horizontal type, e.g., research and publications for universities

2. Deregulated HEIs - show evidence of very good performance  consistent with their

horizontal type.

3. Regulated HEIs - still need to demonstrate good institutional quality and program

outcomes
